Reductive amination of oxidized hydroxypropyl cellulose with ω-aminoalkanoic acids as an efficient route to zwitterionic derivatives. Carbohydr Polym 2024; 328:121699. [PMID: 38220336 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2023.121699] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2023] [Revised: 12/02/2023] [Accepted: 12/13/2023] [Indexed: 01/16/2024]
Abstract
Zwitterionic polymers, with their equal amounts of cationic and anionic functional groups, have found widespread utility including as non-fouling coatings, hydrogel materials, stabilizers, antifreeze materials, and drug carriers. Polysaccharide-derived zwitterionic polymers are attractive because of their sustainable origin, potential for lower toxicity, and possible biodegradability, but previous methods for synthesis of zwitterionic polysaccharide derivatives have been limited in terms of flexibility and attainable degree of substitution (DS) of charged entities. We report herein successful design and synthesis of zwitterionic polysaccharide derivatives, in this case based on cellulose, by reductive amination of oxidized 2-hydroxypropyl cellulose (Ox-HPC) with ω-aminoalkanoic acids. Reductive amination products could be readily obtained with DS(cation) (= DS(anion)) up to 1.6. Adduct hydrophilic/hydrophobic balance (amphiphilicity) can be influenced by selecting the appropriate chain length of the ω-aminoalkanoic acid. This strategy is shown to produce a range of amphiphilic, water-soluble, moderately high glass transition temperature (Tg) polysaccharide derivatives in just a couple of efficient steps from commercially available building blocks. The adducts were evaluated as crystallization inhibitors. They are strong inhibitors of crystallization even for the challenging, poorly soluble, fast-crystallizing prostate cancer drug enzalutamide, as supported by surface tension and Flory-Huggins interaction parameter results.

Abstract
Soft matter integration of photosensitizers and catalysts provides promising solutions to developing sustainable materials for energy conversion. Particularly, hydrogels bring unique benefits, such as spatial control and 3D-accessibility of molecular units, as well as recyclability. Herein, the preparation of polyampholyte hydrogels based on poly(dehydroalanine) (PDha) is reported. Chemically crosslinked PDha with bis-epoxy poly(ethylene glycol) leads to a transparent, self-supporting hydrogel. Due to the ionizable groups on PDha, this 3D polymeric matrix can be anionic, cationic, or zwitterionic depending on the pH value, and its high density of dynamic charges has a potential for electrostatic attachment of charged molecules. The integration of the cationic molecular photosensitizer [Ru(bpy)3 ]2+ (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) is realized, which is a reversible process controlled by pH, leading to light harvesting hydrogels. They are further combined with either a thiomolybdate catalyst ([Mo3 S13 ]2- ) for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) or a cobalt polyoxometalate catalyst (Co4 POM = [Co4 (H2 O)2 (PW9 O34 )2 ]10- ) for oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Under the optimized condition, the resulting hydrogels show catalytic activity in both cases upon visible light irradiation. In the case of OER, higher photosensitizer stability is observed compared to homogeneous systems, as the polymer environment seems to influence decomposition pathways.

Abstract
The clinical application of nanomedicines faces the dilemma of improved safety but restricted efficacy due to the poor intratumoral bioavailability of chemotherapeutics. We here design an enzyme-silenced nanosponge that shares a long-term lifespan to reversibly exhale/inhale doxorubicin (DOX) for continuous intercellular relay delivery and improved intratumoral retention. The nanosponge is composed of a cationic lipid overlaying a hyaluronic acid derivative polyampholyte core for enveloping of DOX and hyaluronidase-1-targeted siRNA (siHyal1), and a lipoprotein shell decorated with fusion peptide 4F-tLyP-1 that was fused with apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) mimetic peptide 4F and tLyP-1 for tumor homing and extravasation into the tumor interstitium. Triggered by the intra/intercellular pH variation, the nanosponge core could reversibly swell in endo/lysosome (pH 5.0) for DOX release. Owing to the deprotonation, the nanosponge core shrinks back in cytoplasm (pH 7.4) for DOX reloading and continues the behavior after being secreted to the extracellular matrix (pH 6.8) via Golgi apparatus, which dramatically improves intratumoral DOX retention and availability. Concurrently, the intratumoral lifespan of the nanosponge is prolonged by siHyal1-specific silencing, ensuring spatiotemporal consistency of carrier and drug when shuttling multilayer tumor cells. As a result, the nanosponge achieves efficient tumor inhibition in 99.1% of tumor spheroids and 80.1% of orthotopic tumor models. Collectively, this study provides an intelligent nanosponge design for active intercellular relay drug delivery, achieving improved intratumoral bioavailability of drugs and amplified chemotherapy on solid tumors.

Abstract
Hydrogels are three-dimensional polymer networks with hydrophilic properties. The modifiable properties of hydrogels and the structure resembling living tissue allow their versatile application. Therefore, increasing attention is focused on the use of hydrogels as bioinks for three-dimensional (3D) printing in tissue engineering. Bioprinting involves the fabrication of complex structures from several types of materials, cells, and bioactive compounds. Stem cells (SC), such as mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are frequently employed in 3D constructs. SCs have desirable biological properties such as the ability to differentiate into various types of tissue and high proliferative capacity. Encapsulating SCs in 3D hydrogel constructs enhances their reparative abilities and improves the likelihood of reaching target tissues. In addition, created constructs can simulate the tissue environment and mimic biological signals. Importantly, the immunogenicity of scaffolds is minimized through the use of patient-specific cells and the biocompatibility and biodegradability of the employed biopolymers. Regenerative medicine is taking advantage of the aforementioned capabilities in regenerating various tissues- muscle, bones, nerves, heart, skin, and cartilage.

Abstract
Cells activate stress response pathways to survive adverse conditions. Such responses involve the inhibition of global cap-dependent translation. This inhibition is a block that essential transcripts must escape via alternative methods of translation initiation, e.g., an internal ribosome entry site (IRES). IRESs have distinct structures and generally require a limited repertoire of translation factors. Cellular IRESs have been identified in many critical cellular stress response transcripts. We previously identified cellular IRESs in the murine insulin receptor (Insr) and insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (Igf1r) transcripts and demonstrated their resistance to eukaryotic initiation factor 4F (eIF4F) inhibition. Here, we find that eIF5B preferentially promotes Insr, Igf1r, and hepatitis C virus IRES activity through a non-canonical mechanism that requires its highly charged and disordered N terminus. We find that the N-terminal region of eIF5B can drive cytoplasmic granule formation. This eIF5B granule is triggered by cellular stress and is sufficient to specifically promote IRES activity.

Abstract
Hydrogel-based wearable electrochemical biosensors (HWEBs) are emerging biomedical devices that have recently received immense interest. The exceptional properties of HWEBs include excellent biocompatibility with hydrophilic nature, high porosity, tailorable permeability, the capability of reliable and accurate detection of disease biomarkers, suitable device-human interface, facile adjustability, and stimuli responsive to the nanofiller materials. Although the biomimetic three-dimensional hydrogels can immobilize bioreceptors, such as enzymes and aptamers, without any loss in their activities. However, most HWEBs suffer from low mechanical strength and electrical conductivity. Many studies have been performed on emerging electroactive nanofillers, including biomacromolecules, carbon-based materials, and inorganic and organic nanomaterials, to tackle these issues. Non-conductive hydrogels and even conductive hydrogels may be modified by nanofillers, as well as redox species. All these modifications have led to the design and development of efficient nanocomposites as electrochemical biosensors. In this review, both conductive-based and non-conductive-based hydrogels derived from natural and synthetic polymers are systematically reviewed. The main synthesis methods and characterization techniques are addressed. The mechanical properties and electrochemical behavior of HWEBs are discussed in detail. Finally, the prospects and potential applications of HWEBs in biosensing, healthcare monitoring, and clinical diagnostics are highlighted.

Abstract
We investigate the effect of charge block length on polyampholyte chain conformation and phase behavior using small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and implicit-solvent molecular simulations. To this end, we use solid phase peptide synthesis to precision-tailor a series of polyampholytes consisting of l-glutamic acid (E) and l-lysine (K) monomers arranged in alternating blocks from 2 to 16 monomers. We observe that the polyampholytes tend to phase separate as block size increases. With addition of NaCl, phase separated polyampholytes exhibit a salting-in effect dependent on charge block length. Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy reveals the presence of intramolecular hydrogen bonds that are disrupted upon the addition of NaCl, implicating both electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonding in the phase behavior. SAXS spectra at no-added salt conditions show minimal dependence of charge block length on the radius of gyration (Rg) for soluble polyampholytes, but local chain stiffening is found to be dependent on charge block length. With increasing NaCl, consistent with electrostatic screening, all polyampholytes expand and behave as neutral or swollen chains in good solvent conditions. Molecular simulations are qualitatively consistent with experiments. Implications for understanding intracellular condensates and material design are noted.

Abstract
Smart hydrogels, owing to their exceptional viscoelastic and deformable capacity in response to environmental stimulation involving temperature and pH, have been successfully applied in oilfields for purposes such as water and/or gas shutoff treatments. However, the CO2 breakthrough problem in low permeability reservoirs has not been well solved. In this work, a rheological method-based Avrami dynamics model and Dickinson dynamics model were employed to investigate the dynamic gelation process of thermo-/pH-dual-sensitive PEG/PAMAM nanogels to further our understanding of the microstructure of their gelation and pertinence plugging application. Plugging experiments were performed by alternating injections of CO2 and hydrogel solution in a slug type on three fractured low permeability cores with a backpressure of 13 MPa. The nanogels presented a secondary growth pattern from three to one dimension from micrometer to nanometer size with a morphological transformation from a sphere to an irregular ellipsoid or disk shape. The phase transition temperature was 50 °C, and the phase transition pH was 10. If both or either were below these values, the hydrogel swelled; otherwise, it shrank. Plugging results show that the plugging efficiency was higher than 99%. The maximum breakthrough pressure was 19.93 MPa, and the corresponding residual pressure remained 17.64 MPa for a 10 mD core, exhibiting great plugging performance and high residual resistance after being broken through by CO2.

Abstract
Tissue engineered scaffolds are currently being explored to aid in healing and regeneration of non-union fractures in bone. Additionally, albumin has been demonstrated to provide benefits to healing when applied to injury sites. This paper focuses on delivery of calcium modified, bioactive bovine serum albumin (BSA) from a multi-functional polyampholyte polymer scaffold. First, the inherent nonfouling and conjugation properties of the polyampholyte hydrogel were verified to determine the impact of calcium exposure. The polyampholyte hydrogel delivery platform was then assessed with calcium titrations and osteoblast-like cell (MC3T3-E1) adhesion, proliferation, and viability evaluations. Finally, integrin inhibitors were used to identify the binding mechanisms that mediate cell adhesion to the calcium-modified BSA-conjugated hydrogels. An increase in cell adhesion was observed following calcium exposure up to 0.075 M, although this and higher calcium concentrations affected hydrogel stability and cell growth. BSA exposed to 0.05 M calcium and delivered from polyampholyte hydrogels promoted the most promising viable cell adhesion over 7 days. Cell adhesion to the calcium-modified BSA-conjugated hydrogels appeared to be regulated by arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) and collagen specific integrins. These results demonstrate that the delivery of calcium modified BSA from an implantable polymer scaffold is promising for bone tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Milk proteins are excellent biomaterials for the modification and formulation of food structures as they have good nutritional value; are biodegradable and biocompatible; are regarded as safe for human consumption; possess valuable physical, chemical, and biological functionalities. Hydrogels are three-dimensional, cross-linked networks of polymers capable of absorbing large amounts of water and biological fluids without dissolving and have attained great attraction from researchers due to their small size and high efficiency. Gelation is the primary technique used to synthesize milk protein nanohydrogels, whereas the denaturation, aggregation, and gelation of proteins are of specific significance toward assembling novel nanostructures such as nanohydrogels with various possible applications. These are synthesized by either chemical cross-linking achieved through covalent bonds or physical cross-linking via noncovalent bonds. Milk-protein-based gelling systems can play a variety of functions such as in food nutrition and health, food engineering and processing, and food safety. Therefore, this review highlights the method to prepare milk protein nanohydrogel and its diverse applications in the food industry.

Abstract
Supramolecular hydrogels are 3D, elastic, water-swelled materials that are held together by reversible, non-covalent interactions, such as hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic, ionic, host-guest interactions, and metal-ligand coordination. These interactions determine the hydrogels' unique properties: mechanical strength; stretchability; injectability; ability to self-heal; shear-thinning; and sensitivity to stimuli, e.g., pH, temperature, the presence of ions, and other chemical substances. For this reason, supramolecular hydrogels have attracted considerable attention as carriers for active substance delivery systems. In this paper, we focused on the various types of non-covalent interactions. The hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic, ionic, coordination, and host-guest interactions between hydrogel components have been described. We also provided an overview of the recent studies on supramolecular hydrogel applications, such as cancer therapy, anti-inflammatory gels, antimicrobial activity, controlled gene drug delivery, and tissue engineering.

Abstract
The human brain has unique features that are difficult to study in animal models, including the mechanisms underlying neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders. Despite recent advances in human primary brain tissue culture systems, the use of these models to elucidate cellular disease mechanisms remains limited. A major reason for this is the lack of tools available to precisely manipulate a specific area of the tissue in a reproducible manner. Here we report an easy-to-use tool for site-specific manipulation of human brain tissue in culture. We show that line-shaped cryogel scaffolds synthesized with precise microscale dimensions allow the targeted delivery of a reagent to a specific region of human brain tissue in culture. 3-sulfopropyl acrylate (SPA) was incorporated into the cryogel network to yield a negative surface charge for the reversible binding of molecular cargo. The fluorescent dyes BODIPY and DiI were used as model cargos to show that placement of dye loaded scaffolds onto brain tissue in culture resulted in controlled delivery without a burst release, and labelling of specific regions without tissue damage. We further show that cryogels can deliver tetrodotoxin to tissue, inhibiting neuronal function in a reversible manner. The robust nature and precise dimensions of the cryogel resulted in a user-friendly and reproducible tool to manipulate primary human tissue cultures. These easy-to-use cryogels offer an innovate approach for more complex manipulations of ex-vivo tissue.

Abstract
Molecularly-imprinted polyampholyte (MIP) hydrogels based on nonionic monomer – acrylamide (AAm), anionic monomer – sodium salt of 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid (AMPS) and cationic monomer – (3-acrylamidopropyl)trimethyl ammonium chloride (APTAC) were obtained by immobilization of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and lysozyme in situ polymerization conditions. It was found that the best amphoteric hydrogel for sorption of BSA is APTAC-75H while for sorption of lysozyme is AMPS-75H. The sorption capacity of APTAC-75H and AMPS-75H with respect to BSA and lysozyme is 305.7 and 64.1-74.8 mg per 1 g of hydrogel respectively. Desorption of BSA and lysozyme from MIP template performed by aqueous solution of 1M NaCl is equal to 82-88%. Separation of BSA and lysozyme from their mixture was performed on MIP templates. The results of adsorption-desorption cycles of BSA on adjusted to BSA polyampholyte hydrogel APTAC-75H and of lysozyme on adjusted to lysozyme polyampholyte hydrogel AMPS-75H show that the mixture of BSA and lysozyme can be selectively separated with the help of MIP hydrogels.

Abstract
Tissue-engineered scaffolds encounter many challenges including poor integration with native tissue. Nonspecific protein adsorption can trigger the foreign body response leading to encapsulation and isolation from the native injured tissue. This concern is mitigated with nonfouling polymer scaffolds. This study investigates the long-term biocompatibility of a nonfouling polyampholyte system composed of positively charged [2-(acryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium chloride monomers and negatively charged 2-carboxyethyl acrylate monomers, cross-linked with triethylene glycol dimethacrylate. This system has previously shown resistance to nonspecific protein adsorption and short-term cell attachment via conjugated proteins. However, longer-term cell survival has not been evaluated with this system. First, the environmental pH was monitored with varying amounts of counter ions present in the hydrogel synthesis buffer. The lowest level (3 M NaOH) and the level that resulted in pH values closest to physiological conditions (6.7 M NaOH) were chosen for further investigation. These two formulations were then compared in terms of their contact angle, qualitative protein adsorption and conjugation capacity, and quantitative cell adhesion, proliferation, and viability. The 3 M NaOH formulation showed higher initial protein conjugation and cell adhesion compared to the 6.7 M NaOH formulation. However, the 3 M NaOH hydrogels had low cell viability after 24 h due to the acidic component release into the culture environment. The 6.7 M NaOH formulation showed a lower initial conjugation and cell adhesion but overcame this limitation by providing a stable environment that maintained cell viability for over 5 days. The 6.7 M NaOH polyampholyte hydrogel formulation shows increased biocompatibility, while maintaining resistance to nonspecific protein adsorption, as demonstrated by the targeted cell adhesion and proliferation. Therefore, this polyampholyte formulation demonstrates strong potential as a tissue-engineered scaffold.

Abstract
The title salt, C10H21N2O+·C7H12NO4S-, comprises a 3-methacryl-amido-N,N,N-tri-methyl-propan-1-aminium cation and a 2-acryl-amido-2-methyl-propane-1-sulfonate anion. The salt crystallizes with two unique cation-anion pairs in the asymmetric unit of the ortho-rhom-bic unit cell. The crystal studied was an inversion twin with a 0.52 (4):0.48 (4) domain ratio. In the crystal, the cations and anions stack along the b-axis direction and are linked by an extensive series of N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network. Hirshfeld surface analysis was carried out on both the asymmetric unit and the two individual salts. The contribution of inter-atomic contacts to the surfaces of the individual cations and anions are also compared.

Abstract
Polyampholyte cryogels are a less considered subject in comparison with cryogels based on nonionic, anionic and cationic precursors. This review is devoted to physicochemical behavior, complexation ability and catalytic properties of cryogels based on amphoteric macromolecules. Polyampholyte cryogels are able to exhibit the stimuli-responsive behavior and change the structure and morphology in response to temperature, pH of the medium, ionic strength and water–organic solvents. Moreover, they can uptake transition metal ions, anionic and cationic dyes, ionic surfactants, polyelectrolytes, proteins, and enzymes through formation of coordination bonds, hydrogen bonds, and electrostatic forces. The catalytic properties of polyampholyte cryogels themselves and with immobilized metal nanoparticles suspended are outlined following hydrolysis, transesterification, hydrogenation and oxidation reactions of various substrates. Application of polyampholyte cryogels as a protein-imprinted matrix for separation and purification of biomacromolecules and for sustained release of proteins is demonstrated. Comparative analysis of the behavior of polyampholyte cryogels with nonionic, anionic and cationic precursors is given together with concluding remarks.

Abstract
Zwitterionic polymers, including polyampholytes and polybetaines, are polymers with both positive and negative charges incorporated into their structure. They are a unique class of smart materials with great potential in a broad range of applications in nanotechnology, biomaterials science, nanomedicine and healthcare, as additives for bulk construction materials and crude oil, and in water remediation. In this Tutorial Review, we aim to highlight their structural diversity and design criteria, and their preparation using modern techniques. Their behavior, both in solution and at surfaces, will be examined under a range of environmental conditions. Finally, we will exemplify how their unique behaviors give rise to specific properties tailored to a selection of their numerous applications.

Abstract
Polyampholyte hydrogels (PAHs) constitute a class of physical gels with cross-linking originating from inter- and intrachain ionic cross-linking between countercharged functional groups. In our previous report, we have shown that PAH has the potential to be a gel electrolyte in electrochemical energy storage devices. In this work, we further our understanding of charge-balanced PAH as a host material for gel electrolytes by studying the effect of dialysis on the mechanical properties and ionic conductivities of PAHs, whereas these properties are compared with those of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-based gel electrolytes. Here, various electrolyte solutions were investigated as dialyzing agents. The ionic species in the electrolytes form ion pairs with countercharged functional groups in PAH, whereas such interactions govern the ionic conductivity and mechanical strength of PAH in various electrolytes. For anions, the trend in ionic interactions follows the Hofmeister series in an exact manner, whereas some anomaly is observed among cations. We anticipate that our study provides a design criterion for fabricating gel electrolytes. In a broader context, this work can shed light on understanding the behavior of PAHs in various operational environments, such as under physiological conditions and in antifouling coatings for biomedical and maritime applications, respectively.

Abstract
At present, a large amount of research from experimental and theoretical points of view has been done on interpolyelectrolyte complexes formed by electrostatic attractive forces and/or interpolymer complexes stabilized by hydrogen bonds. By contrast, relatively less attention has been given to polymer⁻polymer complex formation with synthetic polyampholytes (PA). In this review the complexation of polyampholytes with polyelectrolytes (PE) is considered from theoretical and application points of view. Formation of intra- and interpolyelectrolyte complexes of random, regular, block, dendritic polyampholytes are outlined. A separate subsection is devoted to amphoteric behavior of interpolyelectrolyte complexes. The realization of the so-called "isoelectric effect" for interpolyelectrolyte complexes of water-soluble polyampholytes, amphoteric hydrogels and cryogels with respect to surfactants, dye molecules, polyelectrolytes and proteins is demonstrated.
